Short Stories
Hi everyone. I've decided to add a new element to my site... SHORT STORIES! This is where I will unload onto you all the other ideas that run through my mind. The thoughts that have their own tales to tell and deserve to be put down on paper. This will also give me a chance to share with you some of my own work since I understand there can be a disconnect with a site for an aspiring author who's novel is still in the works. These short stories will be exactly that, short little snippets to enjoy. I may write these in between chapters of Moonstruck to give myself a break from the storyline while still keeping the creative juices flowing. Each story will have its own tab where you can read it in its entirety. Check back often because there is more to come. Don't be afraid to drop comments/emails to let me know what you guys think!
Sunken Melodies
A siren who is ever insistent on refusing to give herself over to the sea, comes across a boy by the name of Morgan. He is young and seemingly unaware of her true nature, but sparks an old and fading memory from her past. Morgan may not be as naive as he seems, and is willing to give her his life freely. It is up to Lorelei, and her alone to decide how she will seal both of their fates. Will she allow Morgan to answer her siren's call, or will she answer the call of the sea?
